Marital Counseling

Today’s couples are facing more challenges than ever before – economic hardships such as burdens of student loans, underwater mortgages and dual careers and lack of extended family and community support. Without a strong bond built on the ability to compromise, cooperate and communicate clearly the pressures of daily living chip away at the love and desire the couple has for each other, eroding the groundwork necessary for a lasting union. In our marital sessions we help couples minimize conflict, argue less and love more and teach them concrete marital skills, such as our ABCs of a happy marriage, beginning with daily practice of three A’s: Attention, Affection and Appreciation. Unfortunately, many couples wait too long to address their conflicts until growing resentment or estrangement makes reconciliation difficult or leads to extra marital affairs or psychological desertion.
